Codemasters announces Dirt 4; heading to PC, current-gen in June

Codemasters today confirmed Dirt 4, heading to PC and current-gen consoles in June.

The title will include a new system called Your Change — “an innovative rally route creation tool that allows you to produce a near infinite number of unique stages at the touch of a button,” according to Codemasters.

“You choose your location and set the route parameters then Your Stage does the hard work to create a unique rally stage that you can race, share with your friends and then challenge them to beat your time. Your Stage allows experienced rally players to create longer, more technical routes, whilst newcomers can create simpler shorter routes as they hone their skills.”
